Hoi, A live mirror is not based on using dumps. A life mirror wants an update by either crawling real time or by using the RSS feed to keep the system up to date. Thanks, GerardM

I'd like to run a live mirror of Wikipedia without any advertising. I'd put the live pages into the robots.txt file so search engines would only be allowed to access my local cache, and thus wouldn't cause any extra traffic for Wikimedia. So can I have permission to do this?

As far as you don't hit the wikipedia servers when crawling to populate your cache. Get the dumps from http://download.wikimedia.org/
